International Women’s Day 2026: The Solidarity Table
The Solidarity Table is our International Women’s Day 2026 event, bringing people together to share food, conversation and solidarity at a time when the far right is growing louder and more dangerous.
Across the UK and internationally, the far right has increasingly weaponised violence and hatred towards women, attacking our rights, our safety and our communities. This event is part of how we fight back: by coming together, building connection and strengthening the networks that challenge racism, misogyny and division.
Hosted by Women Against the Far Right (WAtFR) Birmingham & Black Country and Stand Up To Racism Birmingham, The Solidarity Table is about collective strength. It’s a space to reflect on the women who have resisted injustice before us, to talk honestly about the threats we face today, and to leave feeling more connected and ready to act.
Event: The Solidarity Table
Date: Saturday 07 March, 6pm
Location: Top Church, High St, Dudley DY1 1QD
At a moment when the far right thrives on fear and isolation we are choosing solidarity because when we stand together, we are stronger.
